We’re too polite and laidback. Too slow to anger.
“We’re too polite and laidback. Too slow to anger.”
Do you see that changing anytime soon?
Yep, on both sides of the Atlantic. I forget whose quote it is, but there's one about the Anglos being the most warlike people on earth, once roused, and that opponents should disregard that at their own peril.
We're too tranquillized by "entertainment" (which now includes a daily dose of social brainwashing) these days; it'll take a lot to shake us from that stupor.
FWIW, some of us here understand the gun situation in the U.K. just fine. I'd love to compete in one of your 300 meter civilian service rifle matches. Pity that you're forced to modify the AR platform to remove the gas system, but it makes for quite a good straight-pull bolt action.
